Indentation

Last modified: 24 August 2023

Indentation settings are configured for every programming language separately.

GoLand displays the indentation information in the status bar. So, if your project has files of different types, the easiest way of learning the current indentation style and accessing the corresponding settings is to use the Indentation widget.
